A good movie is a movie that would made you get carried away by the feelings of the protagonists. This movie is that kind of movie. You would laughed with Chen Chen and Zheng Yu Xing, you would made silly jokes with them and you would also cried with them.
The characters development was excellent, the setting was believable and the story was relatable. This is how coming of age movies should be made. And this is the best coming of age movies from Mainland China that I saw until now. You won't regret see this movie.
Definitely 9/10.

"I hate coming of age movies" "Me too"
Coming-of-age story within crush-meets-heartbreak drama
Not just another 'crush meets heartbreak' romance drama but also nice coming-of-age story. Unfortunately Leste Chen had to compromise his LGBT vision for Chinese market. Zhang & Wu made endearing chemistry together to deal with their own lies and truths.
Gave me 'Everything Everything' vibes
After watching 'Everything Everything' I was so relieved cause I could see some 'grown-ups' out there understands young people and have really tried to say "Hey, I've been there before and it's really ok not to be ok sometimes" through their stories... not pretending to have been perfect. It feels so refreshing get such feelings again after watching 'Upcoming'
